It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

I’m at a complete loss about how a convicted felon in the US can’t vote, won’t qualify for most jobs, but can be appointed or elected to the highest offices of government. There isn’t another developed country in the world that would tolerate this. All sane Americans need to refuse to accept it.

I've known for a long time, now, that @meidastouch.bsky.social is the future. But Mika and Joe made it abundantly clear this past weekend they are untrustworthy. Never have I been more grateful for @meidasjordy.bsky.social @bmeiselas.bsky.social and @meiselasb.bsky.social. Now join me in doing this

BREAKING NEWS: The Matt Gaetz file has officially been leaked: An “unknown and unauthorized third party” has gained access to depositions tied to Matt Gaetz, a source says. RT if you’re ready to see it. 🍿
